Southern Charm Recap: Jenn for the Win!

The reunion picked up right where we left off with Kathryn leaving the set. Naturally, I blame Landon. It was absolutely below the belt for Landon to bring up the custody battle & drug test, which by the way is not apart of the show. Landon sure is acting the bitter current wife towards the ex… I honestly think Kathryn just needed a moment to collect herself.

Apparently Thomas did not get the same hair drug test as Kathryn. I 100% do not believe that Thomas would be able to pass a drug test that goes back 6 months. See his dinner party from Hell; you can not tell me that that wasn’t on a drug fueled rage as Whitney would say. We also learn the Kathryn’s main issue with Thomas is his lack of child support. I will say that he does pay her rent, but I’m sure two children are expensive. I have no children & I’m expensive; I couldn’t imagine trying to support any dependents on my own. I think it boils down to Thomas not meeting the expectations that he set forth with Kathryn. Kathryn did say that she has a few business endeavors that she is pursuing, so I guess her SC salary is going towards the startup? Landon, Miss Fails at Life, had the nerve to mock Kathryn’s necklace/business while wearing the most hideous earrings ever created. Seriously, what is wrong with her – other than being a BIG TIME BITCH?!?!

On to the Polo Match… Kathryn’s meltdown was a result of the pirate porn star that Thomas was running around with. Due to the pirate’s blatant drug use, etc. she didn’t want Kensie around that. Rational thought, case closed. Does anyone else feel like Craig is Kathryn’s lawyer/PR guy at this reunion? Despite JD & Landon’s assertions to the contrary, Thomas does not think that Kathryn created any pregnancy issues for his attention, money, or sympathy. Me when Landon speaks:

Thomas reveals that he has done a 180 in his opinion of Jennifer because she is pregnant with a special needs child. My opinion has changed as well, but for totally different reasons. A few blogs back, I totally thought she was meddling in Kathryn’s relationship & wasn’t very kind; however, I now realize that Jenn & Coop were the only ones looking out for her. Jenn is a delight! The cast has decided that Thomas & Kathryn are the modern day Goldie Hawn & Kurt Russell…that might be a stretch. But if Kensie develops a line of athletic wear, TRav & Kathryn will never have to work again! #upsidetonevergettinghitched

Jennifer joined the group in defense of Kathryn. YEA! Andy asked about the father of her baby, Jenn coyly said he was excited. Andy then asked if it was Thomas – y’all Mama J actually thought TRav was the baby daddy. Kathryn has been a huge support for Jennifer during her pregnancy. Jennifer kept it classy, & only said that she did nothing while T & K were together, & did not reveal if she has slept with any man. Immaculate conception? Shep asked why Jenn & Kat can be friends but not with Landon. Jennifer said that Landon antagonizes Kathryn intentionally by flaunting her relationship friendship with Thomas on social media. Cameran had it right when she said that if they are not dating, then Landon doesn’t need to sensor herself. Jennifer became emotional when the cast said that she was wrongly villain-ized. Oddly, Landon seemed to be on the verge of tears along with Jennifer.

Back from the commercial, the focus moved onto Whitney. He admitted that he primarily lives in Los Angeles. He & Larissa are on a break. Surprisingly, Kathryn chimed in saying that Larissa was really sweet & good for Whitney. Thomas & Whitney also take breaks when T & K are together.

Thomas admitted that the dinner party from Hell was in reaction to Julien’s “questionable” paternity. It was so obvious that Kathryn was trying to finish their conversation when Thomas crawled out the window. Landon didn’t seem to understand this & unrelentingly brought it up over & over. Cameran, adult that she is, admitted that she can come off sanctimonious & that perhaps she has some personal growth to do. A win for adulting! On the opposite end of the spectrum, Landon cannot fathom that she needs any self-improvement. Shep is the obvious winner of this dinner party – if mailbox money exists, I want to get in on that. Cameran said that Thomas was having a nervous breakdown. I think that is code for a drug fueled rage. Thomas did concede that he was raised better than that, as most Southerners are.

Oddly, the sanctimonious one, Cameran, accidentally hosted a Girls Gone Wild while she was on the Real World. It was also revealed that Landon was almost on The Hills but ultimately she didn’t want to be manipulated by reality producers. Andy snarked that it was scripted.

Andy moved on to ask Kathryn why Thomas’ relationship with Landon bothers her so much. Cameran interrupted to tell Kathryn that she is too reactionary…how is Landon not reactionary as well? Jekyll Island came up, which set Kathryn off. Andy chimed in to tell Landon to shut it or he’ll murder himself. That’s how we all feel, Andy.

Moving on to the Founder’s Ball, Craig wondered exactly why there is so much animosity between K & L? Kathryn has been told by many spies sources that Landon & Thomas slept together. She cannot accept the lying about said indiscretions. Whitney, Shep, & Cameran think that Thomas can’t keep a secret & TRav would’ve admitted it by now. Craig & Shep on WWHL intimated that something could have happened in London.

At the end of the Ball, Landon’s friend Robyn asked Shep when he thought Landon would admit to sleeping with Thomas? Y’all, I totally believe Robyn. She had her back to the cameras & didn’t realize they were filming. Mic drop. If she wanted her 15 minutes of fame, as Landon claims, she would have been comically obvious about it…just sayin’. Landon & Thomas maintain their lackluster innocence.

Shocker of all SHOCKERS – Whitney & Kathryn hugged it out during a commercial break. Is there a truce in our midst?!?!

A few remaining observations from the reunion… Were Cameran’s eyelashes falling off or something? Lots of blinking going on. Why was Shep’s birthday party glossed over? I wish Kathryn was more eloquent; I think it’ll come with age. Was Landon intentionally lowering her voice? On Social Media, Landon intimated that she would be vindicated, but only succeeded in gaining more hate mail. The only person who got vindicated at this reunion was Jennifer Snowden. By the end of the reunion, even Whitney seemed fed up with Landon’s unrelenting attacks on Kathryn.

I feel like if Kathryn, Cameran, Landon, Naomie, Danni, Jennifer, & Elizabeth took a Girl’s Trip to Dollywood then all would be right in their world.
